Jimmy Kimmel hearts 'Twilight'

You might not know it to look at him, but Jimmy Kimmel is apparently a Twihard. So much so, in fact, that he's hosting a prime-time special devoted to the "Twilight" saga a week before "Eclipse" premieres.

The special will be called "Jimmy Kimmel Live: Twilight Saga: Total Eclipse of the Heart," and it's set to air at 10 p.m. ET Wednesday, June 23, seven days before "Eclipse" arrives in theaters. ABC says it will be the only joint prime-time appearance of the movie's three stars, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner.

The special will also feature several other "Eclipse" stars, including Dakota Fanning, Xavier Samuel and Bryce Dallas Howard, along with "other surprise guests." Fans will also get to see exclusive content from the movie ahead of its premiere.

Kimmel has, in fact, hosted members of the "Twilight" cast numerous times on his show, and he had the Pattinson-Stewart-Lautner triumvirate on together when "New Moon" debuted last year as well. Here's part of the interview:
